Regional ConnectionsGrant Program

The Regional Connections Grant Program was created in 2011 as an opportunity for Tri-County Regional Planning Commission (TCRPC) to support local planning and development efforts that help implement our regional long-range land use and transportation plans – the Regional Growth Management Plan and Regional Transportation Plan (RGMP and RTP). The program provides funding to municipalities and counties to support locally-directed, collaborative actions to improve communities, enhance community character, manage growth, maximize existing infrastructure capacity, and link land use and transportation planning decisions to create a more sustainable future for our region.

RGMP MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING

The intent of this Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is to ensure the Regional Growth Management Plan (RGMP) is implemented in an open manner involving regional stakeholders, consistent with Tri-County Regional Planning Commission (TCRPC) policies, and an accurate reflection of the region's values. Its purpose is to forge a working relationship between TCRPC and its municipalities in the implementation of the regional plan.

The MOU is necessary for all grant applications. You can download it here.
